Hole heap a pocket, weh, him rob a hole, heap a people him pick
Him pick bill [unverified], money bag, check and wallet
Hand bag and pocket book purse and make-up kit
In a woman bag, him thief a lipstick

In a dread locks jacket, him thief a chew stick
Behind him ears, corner him, the boy take a splif
Him take three [unverified] out a haggler basket
Take a tin a Vaseline out of a young girl pocket

Take ten pantyhose, about eleven teen slip
Take a gal teeth from under her top lip
Take off a gal hair and leave on the clip
Take off a guy shoes and leave the polish

Strip a gal naked and she don't even feel it
Who do it? Mr. slick tuper tail bandit

A pick-pocket tycoon with a healthy profit
Number one in a the business top of the market
Him thief milk out of coffee and proud to say it

Graduating class about one hundred and six
Teach the tricks and the trade and how to make it

And try fi get a bus fi go in a him district
A jolly bus draw down in the back where him sit
While the driver put on some reggae music

Pay him bus fair, the [unverified] no give him no ticket
Him just walk down the corridor, every pocket where him pick

Him step off a the bus, him feel stylish
And then him feel a cool breeze, just lick him private
Him look down de, so, oh, shit

Them take off him pants and leave on the zip
Them take off him brief and leave the elastic
Take off him balls and leave hair pan it
